Default Dual band antenna ???

Hi all

Now I need a recommendation for a 2m 70cm base antenna. This will go right
at the top of a 50ft tower. My ringo 2m modification antenna didn't pan out
too well. I could get low SWR on some freq but I want a wider range of work.
If that is possible. I also use it for 156 megs (Marine band).

I am looking at the utubes of dual band antennas for home, I like the
UVS-300.

Can anyone make a recommendation for the purchase of a dual band antenna? I
would also like to use it as a SWL antenna as I listen a lot on all bands.
This antenna will be verticle and right at the top of the tower. I am hoping
to spend about 200 dollars.

Thanks for any comments,
